We were allowed to let Skylar suck after 10 days.

Hi! Six weeks sounds like an awful long time. (But you should always stick with what your surgeon says!) We were allowed to go back to the Haberman 24 hours post op, but I have a friend who had to wait 2 weeks post op and she used a bottle called the zip n squeeze. It is made especially for kids who have had cleft surgery and other mouth surgeries. It's a lot like a bottle, but you are mostly just squeezing the milk in their mouth. I'm sure you can find them online....it may be worth a shot!
Good luck!
